The Celtics were able to cover the spread in the last game and kept the game very close the entire time. Now, Boston is coming into the game here with a chance to bounce back from the close loss and potentially rebound to the point of getting a win. That all depends if the Celtics offense is able to show up in the game for a change or not because the Celtics defense is obviously able to keep the Raptors offense in check.

The Raptors came into the last game as the favorite, but the Celtics won the spread. This is the same spread, but the Celtics defense should be able to kick it up a notch in the game here. Look for the fact that Boston is able to kick it up a notch will help to keep the Raptors offense in check, but the Boston offense will do just enough to bring home the win as the Celtics are able to get more second chance shots in the game. Final Score, Boston Celtics win 106-104.
